A well-built sniper rifle is a beautiful thing. Ours has two zoom modes, "Up close and personal" and "Hello, you're dead

My front page posting says what I think about this L.E. I just don't know what to say.

I figure what was said on the FP said enough for the both of us. Spry Spry Spry!!!!

I told you how I feel over at the Yak. Love your work man and that Bounty Hunter with the Swoop is my favorite custom EVER!!!!

Let me know when you want to sale it to me......Love your work. Nice one again bro.

Thanks guys for the kind words. Here is the parts run down...
head - comic pack Wedge
torso - Elite Viper
arms and jacket - Indiana Jones
legs and holster - Han that came with the BMF
the feet are not articulated and the figure was even taller so I cut the feet off, drilled a hole dremeled a depression for them to fit in and gave him feet from torture rack Han.
He is still a bit tall so I may cut the thighs down a bit to where the fake holster strap line is. It is bugging me anyway. Then I painted the shirt, jacket, arms and holster.

wow, you did some crazy dremel work on this one.  im guessing you dremeled off the lower half of the viper's hips and glued on the han's hips/legs that way?  seems a shame in my mind to waste the viper's ball joints....   I would have kept the ball jointed hips and then used joe parts to finish out the legs... you could have used the thighs from the viper figure with the lower legs and feet from a cobra commander, used the holster from han and acheived almost the exact same look....

i'm not going to lie though, the finishe figure you got is pretty dang awesome either way.

Awesome review Spud and just the kind of honesty I was taling about. I love the SA Troopers and Mandos but just don't want or need that for this type of figure. The main reason being I want it to have the look of a classic SW figure and that doesn't include that leg articulation or construction. I went with the balljointed chest as hasbro has done some of that recently. I have a set of Craftsman heavy duty cutters that is like plyers with a razor blade cutting part and I used that to cut the Viper in half just as you described. Now don't get me wrong I love the SA customs with Joes you are doing and have done some like that as well but just not what I was looking for with this group. Thanks for a great reply.

Casual Wedge just looks awesome.   :o  You did a great job picking/splicing parts to make them work together.
